Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 288

"What?" Amber was confused.

The granny smiled and said, "Quarrels are inevitable in a relationship, but you have to learn to compromise. This young man is quite sincere when apologizing. He also bought you breakfast. Forgive him. There aren't many considerate men out there nowadays. If you don't treasue him, you might regret it in the future."

"No, Ma'am. I..."

The elevator arrived.

The granny patted Amber on her shoulder and stopped her, "Miss, think twice about what I've told you."

Then, she looked over at Jared. "Young man, don't make your girlfriend angry in the future. It's fate that brought you together. You shall cherish her."

"Yes, Ma'am. I remember it. Thank you." Jared nodded at her to thank her.

In the past, he hadn't cherished Amber. In the future, Amber would be the most important for him.

Seeing that Jared was obedient, the granny took the grandpa's arm and walked out of the elevator together.

Amber's destination hadn't arrived, so she didn't go out.

Scratching her hair, she felt annoyed and said, "What the heck? Jared Farrell, you bastard! The granny mistook us for lovers. And you didn't even correct her!"

Jared pressed the close button. "I didn't want to embarrass her if she knew she had made a mistake."

"I don't buy it." Amber glared at him. "You and your ulterior motives."

Jared raised his eyebrows and admitted it in default.

Amber rubbed between her eyebrows and calmed down. "All right. I won't argue with you this time. If it happens again, I won't let go of you so easily, Jared Farrell."

She looked at him coldly.

Jared felt a pang in his heart. He lowered his eyes to cover his sorrow and hummed. "Okay. How about the food..."

"I don't want it," said Amber flatly. Ignoring him, she walked out of the elevator and towards her parked car.

Jared followed her while holding the food bag.

Amber also ignored the footsteps behind her. She pulled out her car key and pressed the button to open the door. Then she sat in and drove away.

Jared stood while watching her leave, pressing his thin lips slightly.

Ben, who came over to pick Jared up, watched the whole scene not far away. He shook his head and heaved a sigh.

It seemed Jared still had a long way to go win Amber's heart.

...

At Goldstone Co.

Amber was dealing with the piled documents. Sheila knocked on the door and entered her office. "Excuse me, Ms. Reed. Someone from Mendara Inc. wants to see you."

"Mendara Inc.?" Amber raised her eyebrows.

Sheila nodded. "Yes. The president of Mendara Inc. is here."

"Must be for Chloe Mendez, right?" Amber curled up her lips into a mocking smile.

"Yes, it is. He wants to apologize to you," Sheila answered.

Amber snorted. "What's his offer? Did he bring anything? He's not sincere at all, just like the last time."

Last time, Mrs. Mendez blocked her way in front of the courthouse and apologized to her. She wanted Amber to spare Chloe unconditionally.

Of course, Amber didn't actually care about the gifts or compensation. However, if they wanted to apologize to her, they should at least show their sincerity.

Mr. Mendez seemed to be the same this time.

Amber had to admit that sure enough, they were a couple, so they did things in the same way. Probably, Mrs. Mendez knew she wouldn't let go of Chloe, so Mr. Mendez went to see her deliberately.

Did they think she would let go of Chloe since Mr. Mendez had come here?

They'd better dream on. Amber even ignored Trenton, let alone the Mendez family, who couldn't compare to Goldstone at all.

"Would you like to meet him, Ms. Reed?" Sheila asked.

Amber lowered her head to continue working on the documents. She answered flatly, "No. Let them leave."

"Yes, Ms. Reed." Sheila nodded, turned around, and left the office.

After a while, Amber finally had finished dealing with the pile of documents. She stood up and walked to the French window, rubbing her sore neck and wrists.

Suddenly, she saw several vans arrive downstairs in front of the company.

The car doors were opened, and reporters with microphones and cameras rushed into the entrance like crazy.

They seemed to have sensed some exciting news, looking pretty excited.

Amber frowned, wondering what made the reporters come to Goldstone in such excitement.

However, she felt uneasy somehow.

Amber took a deep breath to suppress the uneasiness. Then she turned around to walk to her desk, picked up the landline phone, and pressed the button to connect to Sheila's office.

"Hello, Ms. Reed. What can I do for you?" Sheila asked respectfully.

Amber pressed her red lips. "I saw many reporters arrive at Goldstone. They are in the lobby now. Go find out..."

Before she finished speaking, her phone rang.

Amber saw it was Cole, so she picked up her phone and said to Sheila, "Please hold on for a moment."

"Okay, Ms. Reed," Sheila answered.

Amber put down the landline phone and wiped to answer the phone call from Cole. "Hello, Cole?"

"Babe, have many reporters arrived at your company?" Cole asked anxiously.

The suppressed uneasiness in Amber's heart surged again.

She pinched the cell phone tightly and nodded. "Yes. Almost more than twenty reporters. What on earth is going on, Cole? Do you know something?"

Cole said in anger, "Makenna did so. Half an hour earlier, she uploaded a statement via her social media account. She said you were the mastermind behind this. Those reporters all rushed to you."

"What?" Amber's expression changed slightly. "How dare Makenna say that!"

"Yeah. I'm so pissed. I wish to skin her alive right now. Damn! She's the most shameless bitch I've ever seen," Cole cursed loudly.

After a few seconds, he tried hard to calm down. "Babe, don't go out. Or, those reporters won't let go of you."

"I know." Amber nodded with a solemn look.

Cole added, "That's good. I'm worried as you are in Goldstone alone. I'll go to accompany you."

As he spoke, he was about to hang up.

Amber hurriedly stopped him, "Please don't. You can't come here. The public knows you are my boyfriend now. If you show up, the reporters won't let go of you either. Probably, some of them have rushed to your company as well."

"Excuse me, Mr. Lyon." She heard someone calling Cole right after she had finished speaking.

Cole exchanged a few words with that person. Then he continued to talk to Amber several seconds later. "You are right, Babe. Many reporters have arrived downstairs of my company as well."

"I'm sorry for bringing the trouble to you, Cole." Amber felt so sorry for him.

Cole smiled carelessly. "All right. I don't blame you. I need to deal with them now."

"Ehn. Go ahead." Amber nodded.

After hanging up the phone, she picked up the landline phone again and continued, "Sheila, go check on the lobby on the first floor. Please bring more security guards there to stop the reporters. They can't come upstairs."

"Yes, Ms. Reed," answered Sheila.

Amber put back the landline phone, rubbing her forehead in anger.

As Cole had said earlier, Makenna was indeed a shameless bitch. As soon as she woke up, she made trouble.
